Cramer's Take on Top-Searched Stocks
Updated from 7:02 a.m. EST
When will it end? While stocks appeared ready to rebound on Tuesday, the downward pressure took hold, sending stocks down yet again in ugly fashion.
In specific stocks, Citigroup (C), which has received $45 billion in bailout cash, revealed a new foreclosure mitigation program that will temporarily lower mortgage payments for some newly laid-off homeowners. The struggling bank plans on lowering payments for three months to an average of $500 a month for some delinquent borrowers.
Meanwhile, it has been reported that General Motors (GM) is going to announce plans to buy Delphi's global steering business as part of a restructuring of both companies. Delphi, GM's largest supplier of auto parts, has been stuck in bankruptcy protection since October 2005.
With this in mind, we thought we'd take a look at some of the stocks people have been searching for on TheStreet.com (including Altera (ALTR)) and see what Jim Cramer's had to say about them lately. To read more, visit Stockpickr.com. In morning trading, shares of Altera were recently trading at $16.17 (up almost 7% for the day).
